The previous owner of Mu Ru Yue’s body had been poisoned. Because of this, her meridians were blocked, hindering her cultivation, which eventually led to her being known as tr*sh. After being beaten to death, Mu Ru Yue, who had originally been a successor to a medicinal aristocratic family in Hua Xia, reincarnated into her new body.

They want to seal my path?

I will train to reach the peak of the realms!

They give me a foolish prince as my husband?

I can make do with him.

It would be easier for me to deal with him, rather than with other candidates who would be thrown at me in the future. I shall strive to become powerful enough that nobody will be able to mock or kill me!

It was good for a while, but it started to fall in quality, until I had to drop it. Some of the reasons:

Spoiler

MC was held against her will by a guy, and her cultivation restricted. Her life was in danger because of the guy, and she lets him live after she gains her freedom. Then, a villain appears that keeps coming back from the dead. The only reason she killed the MC and her family in the past life, and attempting the same in the current life, because ML rejected her. What did it for me, the MC finally reconnects with her current blood family. Also finds her reincarnated son, who she witness tortured and killed by villain in past life. Yet, she spends more time with ml, then ML leaves (to protect MC from powerful sect) to a different realm, and she follows immediately leaving her family behind. Immediately in the new realm, she meets a “beautiful” man, and a jealous girl.

This novel is too disproportionate for my taste. You get the usual MC's family treats her like dirt and the MC gets strong and shows them, and I love my ruthless MCs, but the crime can be anywhere between trying to kill her and trying to take her love interest and the punishment for all of them is horrible r*pe and torture (and only to the females really).

... more>>
Spoiler

One particular scene was a servant of the ML trying to get them to have s*x so that both of them can be protected from their enemies, bit shady with the use of date r*pe drugs and expectation of becoming the ML's concubine but does that warrant the ML sending her to be eaten alive by snakes? They even say it's the most horrible torture he has

[collapse]

The ML is a creepy yandere stalker. They say he's a good guy because unlike every other guy in the series he likes monogamy. He takes advantage of the MC's empathy of his feigned mental disorder in the first few chapters to mol*st her, he tortures, maims and kills anyone who so much as say hi to the MC, and he tries to control the greatly OP Xianxia MC any time he gets the chance. None of that is a bad thing in the series because he's pretty and says she is his only one. <<less

i am literally amazed at how this was written and plotted out. I must admit that I didn't expect the plot to be that complicated yet nonetheless awesome. Though the reason why I only gave two stars in because I can really predict what's going to happen in some cases.

the MC is your typical bullied girl who becomes strong. I initially thought her to be OP which was not the case at all. She might be strong but that doesn't mean that she can't be defeated. The MLC on the... more>> other hand is really just pure adorableness, handsomeness and awesomeness rolled into one. The enemies are quite many though that some may find it troublesome and irritating. But still I think all are important in introducing the grand enemy of the story.

but all in all it's still one of the greatest i've ever read (considering that I'm still quite new to reading chinese novels)

I'm looking forward for more updates and hopefully, they won't frustrate me too much due to cliffhangers. Lol <<less

A brainless novel to waste ur time.

All the antagonists are terrible. The women are portrayed as delusion h**ny. And the men (mostly as followers or bystanders) are portrayed as either think with their d*ck or so brainless that made em easy to manipulated by even the dumbest plot / act from the female antagonist.

MC potrayed as mary sue, while ML potrayed as s*x-addicted gary stu that made him even brawl with pets and their child for MC`s affection.

i suggest u read this when u have no other novel to read... more>> on, but after 200-300chapters u probably gonna bored to death by the repeated s*upid plot.

One thing that kinda refreshing (altho doesn't help much) is the tl notes on almost every end of the chapters. <<less

I don't really mind reading transmigration stories where the MC came from a terrible family, cunning sisters/stepsisters, sudden reverse harem because she was so oh-magnificently-celestial-being-descended-from-heaven. Not even mind when the ML is the most beautiful being in the world (then what is she, second most beautiful? Whatever) and had all unmaried maiden or for some special snowflakes, married, infatuated with him. What I mind is, if the cycle were used over and over and over again.

some girl saw him and fall in love with him and suddenly "why would tr*sh... more>> like her be with him?" and proceed to kill MC just because of jealousy. Once or twice is fine, but the arc is being recycle and dragged - it's always the same.

I don't know if there's some competition going on in the length of the book (chapters), but if you keep using the same premise over and over again, you're going to lose your readers.

where's the originality? Dang, I'm missing those. <<less

I really wanted to like this novel the premise sounded good the reviews weren't terrible and I was getting sick of all the male protagonists you find in wuxia, but I was disappointed. There is little focus on cultivation, there is little focus on her being alchemist just that she is superior one. Almost all of the problems in our main characters life is social, but of course she reveals her secret, her higher status, and those who offended her are punished or her fiance punishes them.

So it was a really good story but I guess the author didn't map the story down neatly.

Spoiler

Even though I could see the proper development of the MC, the supporting characters come and go too much. Especially to what I think was some important character like her eldest son whom disappeared halfway through the story and came back at the final chapter. Well, I do understand that they are focusing on the son and daughter of the MC in her current lifetime, both of which have mysterious power behind them. I just wonder where all the organizations and every piece of land that she conquered have gone to. Even the jumping of era where she fell onto some time warp and got time traveled to one of her lifetimes which is the future where she also died. And did I mention that she have 3 sets of parents? First from her current lifetime, second, her parents in her future lifetime and third, her father at her previous lifetime? Yes, they all appeared in the story thank you.

[collapse]

Even though it may sound like I found a lot of plot holes on the story, the romance and development was steady. She wins and loses like a normal person. I just wished there was some epilogue like showing what happened after she returns and living happily ever like that. <<less

This is one of the best female MC CN novels from the pool of tr*shy tropes that corrupt the genre. This one at the very least has a believablish relationship that isn't built on mol*station, r*pe, or oppression of the female MC by the male MC is a thumbs up in my book. Honestly that makes this so much more bearable than the other ones, even though it still contains many of the same tropes. Since most Female MCs have to be in a relationship at least make it bearable... more>> like this one. <<less

So I've read the translator version. And seriously, without translator unique tantrum and comments, I definitely will NOT read the translate until now.

Some parts feels dragging alot. But MC boldness somehow can make me back from laziness. Just like how MC in latest chapter regret for flattering some old dean after knew there's no harm following her.

So thanks a lot for TL-nim and ptoofreader/editor to make the version really lively to read.

Pretty good, with many standard cliches of this genre, yet is still interesting. MC and male lead are a good pair, and I'm happy author didn't make it (at the current point of time) too harem-ish with everyone and their cat being so in love with MC

- I was very happy when president's grandson didn't want to marry her. Finally!

True, the story isn't very original, but it can be enjoyable.

Other reviews have said its weaknesses better than I can, I'll just add this:
Using r*pe, torture and bodily dis-figuration for karmic retribution, to "evil characters" that were only caricatures is a trope that is used by so many stories, I get that. When it is written this cheap and badly though, it lowers the quality of the work.

Spoiler

The adopted sister who actually poisoned the MC only got humiliated by her, but the younger sister, who abused the MC verbally, was attacked by other men while the MC watched and forced by the Ghost King to marry a disfigured fella who has sadistic tendencies and already claimed two lives. For example, that girl called an old man a beggar and the proper response for a man that old, a grandmaster of a sect to boot, is to kick a brat with no innate powers into a tree? Really?

Perhaps I would enjoy this novel if I had read it before reading Ghost Emperor's Wild Wife, which is written by the same author and part of a shared universe. Having said that, I find this story to be the author's first attempt at creating something like GEWW, where the characters and overall storyline are just a bit lackluster by comparison. The author obviously matured a great deal between the three years she wrote the two novels, and I find it difficult to enjoy for this reason. There is nothing... more>> truly wrong with this story, but I also find it rather mediocre by comparison. Would suggest to any reader to read the works in chronological order to get the full experience.

Translation Quality: very good

3 stars. <<less

This is the first cnovel that I put up with. Has the common annoying antagonist that always blame the MC with every bad thing that happens ro them.

I LOVE and dislike the opness of the MC but it’s bearable. THE SECOND MALE LEAD HERE IS TOO MUCH FOR MY HEART.

I RECOMMEND THIS!

p.s I rated this 4 stars because the ‘villains’ gives me a headache every time they blurt out their reasons.

It's Not XIANXIA novel. Doesn't look like it. Theres no explanation how cultivation works. Theres hardly anything that would be described as Xianxia.

The MC, is dumb. She goes to test her innate talent and doesn't hide it. She breaks the mental testing stone and doesn't hide it. WTF. Author than later keeps making enemies that are trying to kill her as they know her talent. There are many ways to create enemies. But why must the MC be s*upid? The Elder that took the test speaks loudly and brags about... more>> the talent infront of an enemy elder (Tian yuan).

She lets her enimies escape hundred times because of her s*upidity.

I just don't get it. Why do you need to stay in your clan knowing that your clan members are trying to kill you, and you are weak af. Author was afraid that she wouldn't be able to stir up conflicts if she were not to be in the clan. <<less

Well, this is a pain.

I quite like this kind of transmigration or reincarnation type novels. And honestly speaking, I like when the MC is OP and face slapping is satisfying. However, this novel comes with bitter disappointment that doesn't show any good plot like Genius Doctor Black Belly Miss or DKC or Poison Genius Consort. The most important part is that this novel lacks a decent plot that drives the story. It is understandable as it is said that this one is the author's first novel. Evil Emperor's Wild Consort... more>> written by the same author is a little better in my opinion.

The novel starts off pretty nice with a transmigrated MC who is better than anyone else but unfortunately treated as a tr*sh. But the story becomes less and less enjoyable due to the women that appears out of nowhere to claim ML. Love rivals are fine but they are too shameless and delusional.I have only heard of female fatales but now I finally read about an unparalleled "male fatale". All the female characters including MC have terrible one-sided minds that is so unrealistic.

I will state some facts that I find really uncomfortable and s*upid in this novel.

-The MC can really solve almost 98% of all her problems if she honestly show off her power, status, and relationships. All the small villains become laughable and pitiful that they are always kept in the dark and always despair when they finally know of MC's super OPness. And then they turn 180 degree turn from being arrogant to "What?Impossible!How can this be?!"

-MC and ML couple is finding trouble for no reason for plot convenience by traveling to different realms for no apparent reason just to find stronger foes. They love fighting, huh.

Spoiler

The MC is the reincarnation of the super strong alchemist called Senior Yue. The ML is also the reincarnation of her lover in past life. That one girl from their past life wanted to marry ML so she killed all their family, amputated their son and finally killing them in heaven tribulation because they got distracted from seeing their son's condition. She is supposed to be the main villain (although her reason for being a villain is s*upid and ridiculous). However, after being a c*ckroach from time to time, she finally died unsatisfactorily, which lead to the lack of villains!Then the story goes like this-MC goes to a new continent (which obviously has stronger people), get provoked by some random dudes or b**ches, MC retaliates them, a strong "wild"Elder appears who always seem to be on the right time, beats MC up, ML shows up, MC says" this is my fight", MC get a breakthrough in the middle of the fight, the Elder or some other dudes from that something something sects are killed, the sects hunt her down, then MC and ML somehow destroy those sects. This cycle repeats again and again.

Next, the MC has the terrible case of Dark Horse or underdog fetish. Her enemies never know about her. She says that the strong invites trouble. Then she goes on and show off in unimportant "competitions" by being an underdog and then beating the most popular person. No wonder she has so much enemies. One time, her alchemy level is so high but the cauldron she takes to the competition has low rank badge (alchemist skills are identified by that badge), for NO reason and then show off her super skills in font of normies. Also, she is said to be a beauty that could cause the fall of the country but I only see one guy and the ML that fall for her. All other males (and obviously females) hate her. Too much for being a beauty, huh.

[collapse]

I can understand why the characters are only one sided and one dimensional because even the mains can't escape this fate. If you are new to this type of novel, you mighty actually like it. But for sure, you will get bored sooner or later.

-Next is about the villains. Oh, they are so pitiful to the point that I feel so sorry for their existence. They exist just to annoy the readers, nothing more. Every time a crisis rises, there is always a woman coveting the ML from MC.I lost count at the fifth or something girl who wants to become ML's concubine. They will all abandon their family, sects, rationality, shame and even their souls just to be with ML for one night. There is no fighting for a greater cause, the dominance for a rare treasure, the war determining the fate of the continent, nothing!Just the petty females trying to get the D of ML. And the MC spends her time fending off countless admirers of her own husband without doing anything purposeful.

I can go on and on but it's painful to see such a novel with a good potential ruined just because of the lack of creativity in certain areas (sigh, females). After all, these genres are rare and I am willing to read all of them so it's natural that I want them to be at least decent. <<less

This was just tr*sh to be honest. The story was good up until like chapter 40 but then everything went downhill. The main character never faces anything that would trouble her too much because shes overpowered.

The male lead was cute but weird because of how quickly he fell for the female lead. He was acting like he's been dating her for quite a while when he just met her like a day ago. The love plot should slowly develop and not out of nowhere. Because thats how us readers develop... more>> an attachement to their relationship. But here their relationship was forced.

The male lead was acting naive and decieved the female lead, however she quickly brushed it off and acted like nothing happened. The story was just boring after chapters 40/50. I skipped through many chapters thinking the story would get better but it just kept getting worse. To be honest this was just a waste of my time. In conclusion don't waste your time. <<less

Tbh, I fell asleep whenever I tried reading this. At first I thought I was just tired, but three times, it become obvious that this book is boring. I'm not even sure what I've read so far.

There's some points that, I think, is the problem:

  • I don't like how every female antagonist potrayed as shallow jealous characters. Until this very chapter, I counted 4 females had fallen victim to this trope, roll eyes (read Lotus200's review)
  • The plot is repetitive and it always involve jealous woman that tried to 'steal' ML. Boring
  • The conversation flow is stiff and forced. Sometimes borderline cheesy especially between ML and MC. Yawn~~
  • MC is unrealitically too OP and her tasks are easily achieved. There's no room to feel excited, they're just coincidentally at the right time, at the right hand etc... snore
  • Romance is just alright
